Serious question,Do you drink non-alcoholic drinks because you miss drinking?
I've never understood why someone would drink that and just not have a water, coffee or ice tea or something else. When I don't drink I just don't drink.
I don't crave the taste of alcohol.

I dont crave alcohol at all, just enjoy the taste of a good IPA... These things taste good...

Same.

Although there is the temptation at the end of the day to relax with a beer.

I got that way during the pandemic and “working from home” for like a year, didn’t have the commute ritual to end the day so I ended it with a drink around quitting time.

According to the Food Network:

Best Overall – Four Roses Single Barrel Bourbon
Best for Sipping – Hillrock Solera Aged Bourbon
Best for Whiskey Sour – Wild Turkey 101
Best for Manhattan – Breckenridge Bourbon
Best for Old Fashioned – Elijah Craig Small Batch Kentucky Bourbon
Best Value – Old Grand Dad

I’m not sure if they even lift though.

What book are you reading?

This thread appears to be mostly about liquor and not so much about literature.

My favorite TV series of all time which is called Justified is based off a Elmore Leonard book.
Never heard of that cider but I have been getting into different beers lately.

Scandi ciders. Took over the UK a few years ago.

I picked up a bottle of Elijah Craig toasted barrel and it's fantastic

Interesting - I had Basil Haydens toast and thought it was lousy

Haven't had an IPA in weeks.

2 miller lites one time, and that it's for the beers lately.

Did get $100 Trilium gift card, so that will change.

Not a fan of IPA'S. Blue Point is just a tasty summer beer.
My top three beers right now not in order.

I have had maybe 3 light beers in 2 weeks.

Can honestly say it feels so much better in the am, but I do like having beers at night.

I have a Garmin that tracks sleep, and it legit knows every single time I have some beer - it's crazy.
